No analysis available

Owner Occupancy
Low

I searched the remarks for numeric or textual owner-occupancy indicators and found none. Per rules, without an explicit statement we must not guess a percentage, so the value is unknown.

Elevators
Low

Public remarks confirm the building has elevators (multiple references to 'elevator', 'FOB’d elevator', 'access-controlled elevators', etc.), but no listing provides a numeric value such as '4 elevators' or similar. Per rules, we will not guess a number without an explicit statement in the remarks.

Association Fee Low
$859
High

Calculated from the lowest association fee observed across all non-penthouse unit listings for this building.

Association Fee High
$1,021
High

Calculated from the highest association fee observed across all non-penthouse unit listings for this building.

Association Fee (Penthouse)
High

Calculated from association fees observed in penthouse unit listings for this building.

Fee Includes Central AC
No

No analysis available

Fee Includes Cable
Yes
High

Multiple listings (at least one explicit remark) state "HOA includes Spectrum cable," and MLS checkbox usage for CABTV appears in several unit records (7 of 20). Evidence is consistent across agents and public remarks, indicating the building's HOA includes cable service.

Fee Includes Common
Yes
High

OTCOEX is checked in 19 of 20 MLS listings and remarks reference "other common expenses" along with described common-area amenities (elevators, courtyards, security patrol). This strong, consistent evidence supports that common area electric/other common expenses are included in the HOA fees.

Fee Includes Coop Taxes
No

No analysis available

Fee Includes Electricity
No

No analysis available

Fee Includes Gas
No

No analysis available

Fee Includes Hot Water
No
High

HOTWAT is absent in all MLS entries (0 of 20) while WTRHTR appears in 17 of 20 unit listings, and no remarks assert "hot water included." The evidence is consistent and strong that hot water is supplied by individual unit water heaters, not included in HOA fees.

Fee Includes Internet
Yes
High

Though INTSER is checked in a subset of MLS entries (5 of 20), public remarks explicitly state "HOA includes ... internet" in at least one listing. This explicit agent language across listings supports that internet service is included in the HOA fees.

Fee Includes Marina
No

No analysis available

Fee Includes Sewer
Yes
High

SEWER is checked in all MLS records reviewed (20 of 20) and remarks explicitly list "sewer" as included in HOA fees. The unanimity across listings and agents gives very high confidence that sewer is included.

Fee Includes Water
Yes
High

WATER appears in every MLS listing (20 of 20) and multiple remarks explicitly confirm "HOA includes ... water." The consistent checkbox usage and explicit agent statements indicate high confidence that water is included in the HOA fees.

Bbq
Yes
High

Strong evidence across listings: 19 of 20 MLS listings list BBQ in amenities and multiple public remarks explicitly mention "BBQ areas", "BBQ grills", "courtyard BBQs" and "BBQ stations". The feature is confirmed by numerous agents' remarks and aligns with prior high-confidence data.

Patio Deck
Yes
High

Strong evidence across the current remarks: numerous listings explicitly advertise a "lanai", "private lanai", "covered lanai" or "wrap-around lanai" (phrases quoted include "private, generous lanai", "spacious lanai", and "wrap-around lanai"). This corroborates prior MLS checkbox data (historically high confidence) and appears consistently across multiple agents/remarks rather than being an isolated copy-paste error, so the building-level patio/deck amenity should be included.

Path Jogging
Yes
High

Several listings explicitly mention on-site paths and fitness circulation, including 'walking paths, lawns, & exercise stations,' 'tropically landscaped grounds boasting a fitness network,' 'strolling paths,' and 'Barbecue, walking path, and exercise circuit are just below.' At least four separate remark sets describe these walking/fitness paths, and 11/20 current MLS entries flag the walking/jogging path amenity. The consistent, detailed language suggests established shared paths integrated into the landscaped grounds.

Playground
No

No analysis available

Private Yard
No
High

No listing remarks explicitly describe private or fenced yard space; instead listings consistently describe lanais, landscaped courtyards, garden views, BBQ areas and shared lawns. Only 1/20 MLS records indicate PRIYAR in amenities (appears isolated), and agent copy/paste is likely given the lack of corroborating language like 'private yard' or 'fenced yard' across multiple agents.

Putting Green
No

No analysis available

Recreation Area
Yes
Medium

Moderate evidence: 8 of 20 MLS listings include a recreation-area amenity and several remarks reference shared recreation amenities such as "walking paths", "exercise stations/fitness network", "landscaped courtyards" and "recreation circuit". Multiple agent remarks imply common recreation spaces, though descriptions are varied and sometimes likely copy/paste.

Recreation Room
No

Restaurant

Storage Unit
Yes
High

Multiple listings for this building explicitly mention building storage/lockers — phrases include "secure bike & board storage," "storage for your bikes and kayaks," "common storage area for your bikes, surf or paddle boards," and "generous storage." At least several different agent remarks reference shared storage or limited on-site storage, and MLS amenities checkboxes also list STORAG/ADDLVSTORAG on some listings (3/20) with one listing showing STORAG in unit features, supporting that the building offers storage units/lockers.

Surfboard Storage
Yes
High

Numerous listings mention dedicated surfboard/board/kayak storage and on-site common storage for boards and paddle equipment. This clearly indicates the building provides surfboard storage facilities.

Tennis Court
No

No analysis available

Trash Chute
Yes
Medium

Implied evidence: 17 of 20 MLS listings list a trash chute amenity, however none of the public remarks explicitly mention "trash chute", "garbage chute" or "refuse chute." Presence is likely based on MLS amenity checkboxes (possible agent copy/paste), so included with moderate/implicit confidence.

Valet
No

No analysis available

Wall Fence
No

No analysis available

Whirlpool
No

No analysis available

Pool
No

No analysis available

Pool Heated
No

No analysis available

Pool Salt
No
Low

I searched for references to a salt water pool and found none. The remarks reference a Kailua District Park Olympic-size pool across the street, but no onsite building pool or description of pool chemistry.

Laundry In Unit
Yes
High

Strong, consistent evidence that many units at Ka Malanai have in-unit laundry: MLS inclusion data shows 20 of 20 current listings include WASHER/DRYER. Multiple public remarks explicitly state "full size washer and dryer," "washer/dryer in unit," or "washer and dryer included," indicating the feature is present across listings and not an isolated claim.

Community Laundry
No

No analysis available

Community Laundry Paid
No
Low

I looked for explicit indicators of paid community laundry (coin laundry, card operated, quarters, 'paid laundry') and found none. Remarks mostly reference in-unit washers/dryers or unit-specific laundry rooms, not paid community laundry.

Community Laundry Every Floor
No
Low

I searched all public remarks for phrases like 'laundry on each floor', 'laundry room on every floor', or 'floor-by-floor laundry' and found none. Several listings mention in-unit washers/dryers or a separate laundry room for a particular unit, but nothing indicates community laundry on every floor.

Parking
Yes
High

Every recent MLS listing (20/20) includes a parking checkbox and the public remarks repeatedly mention parking: examples include "THREE parking stalls!", "two covered parking stalls", and "one covered parking stall." Evidence is consistent across many agents/listings and strongly supports that the building provides parking.

Parking Assigned
Yes
High

Assigned parking is consistently advertised: roughly 17 of 20 recent MLS records include ASSIGN and numerous remarks state phrases like 'two assigned covered parking stalls' and 'one assigned parking'. Evidence is repeated across many listings and agents rather than a single copy/paste, supporting high confidence that the building offers assigned parking.

Parking Covered
Yes
High

Covered parking is strongly supported: 20 of 20 recent MLS entries include covered/garage parking and multiple remarks repeatedly mention 'covered parking stalls' and 'two covered parking stalls near the elevator'. The evidence is consistent across listings and agents, giving very high confidence in covered parking availability.

Parking Deeded
No
Low

Listings repeatedly reference assigned/covered parking stalls (two, three, etc.) but none explicitly state the parking is deeded/owned; absence of 'deeded' language means we cannot mark as deeded.

Parking E V
No

No analysis available

Parking Fee
Low

Searched for 'parking fee', '$ per month', 'monthly parking' and related phrases; no parking fee or rental cost is described in any remarks, so monthly parking fee is unknown.

Parking Guest
Yes
High

Guest parking is commonly advertised: about 17 of 20 MLS listings include the GUEST flag and many remarks include phrases like 'guest parking', 'ample guest parking', and 'loads of guest parking'. The repeated mentions across separate listings support high confidence that guest parking is available in the complex.

Parking Secured Entry
No

No analysis available

Parking Tandem
No

No analysis available

Parking Valet
No

No analysis available

Parking Waitlist
No
Low

Reviewed remarks for 'waitlist' and 'waiting list' language. While storage has a sign-up/list reference, there is no evidence of a parking waitlist system in the public remarks.

Security Keyed Elevator
No

No analysis available

Security Card
Yes
High

Several listings explicitly mention electronic/key fob/card access systems and secure entry (keyed elevator, FOB’d elevator, key fob/intercom access, secure entry). This provides strong evidence the building uses card/fob access.

Security Guard
Yes
High

Historical MLS checkbox data previously showed SECGUA on several Ka Malanai listings and current public remarks continue to confirm staffed security. Multiple listings explicitly state "daytime Resident Manager on site and night time guard service," "on site resident manager, and night shift security," and other secure-entry/video-surveillance references (at least 3 separate remarks), indicating consistent building-level staffed security.

Security Patrol
Yes
High

Several listings explicitly note security patrol or night shift security and reference an on-site resident manager plus night guard service. This is strong evidence the building provides security patrol services.

Security Video
No

No analysis available

Central AC
Yes
High

Strong evidence the building offers central air: MLS checkbox data shows central AC on 18 of 20 unit feature entries and ACCEN in inclusions for all 20 listings. Public remarks repeatedly state phrases like "central AC", "central a/c", and "central air conditioning" across many listings, indicating consistent confirmation rather than isolated copy/paste. Given the alignment of historical MLS data and multiple independent remarks, include central_ac = true with high confidence.

Split AC
No

No analysis available

Window AC
No

No analysis available

Concrete
Yes
High

Strong evidence for concrete construction: 12 of 20 MLS listings mark CONCRE and a public remark explicitly describes the complex as "steel frame and concrete." The concrete/steel description appears in multiple agent remarks (consistent language), and the historical dataset previously rated concrete as High confidence.

Double Wall
Yes
Medium

MLS-heavy indication of double-wall construction: 16 of 20 listings mark DOUWAL and historical data treated double-wall as typical for the complex. No public remarks explicitly say "double wall," so the conclusion is implied from consistent MLS checkbox usage and may reflect repeated agent entries.

Hollow Tile
No

No analysis available

Masonry/Stucco
Yes
Medium

Some MLS checkbox activity: 8 of 20 listings mark MASSTU and historical confidence was Medium. However, none of the public remarks explicitly reference "masonry" or "stucco," suggesting the evidence is largely from MLS checkbox entries and may reflect agent copy/paste rather than explicit remark confirmation.

Steel Frame
Yes
High

Strong evidence for steel-frame construction: 15 of 20 MLS listings mark STEFRA and at least one public remark explicitly says the development is "steel frame and concrete." The phrasing appears across agent remarks and matches historical high confidence.

Slab
No

No analysis available

Stone
No

No analysis available

Wood Frame
No
Medium

Limited MLS checkbox presence (3/20) but no supporting language in public remarks (no references to "wood frame" or "wood frame construction"). Given absence in narrative descriptions and stronger steel/concrete evidence, wood-frame construction is unlikely for the building.

Above Ground
Yes
Medium

Mixed evidence for above-ground construction: only 6 of 20 current MLS listings mark ABOGRO and no public remarks reference "above ground," but prior historical assessment rated above-ground as High. With no explicit remarks confirming or denying a change, inclusion is cautious and at a lower confidence level.

Brick
No

No analysis available

Single Wall
No

No analysis available

STR Allowed
No
Low

Searched listings for STR-related language and NUC/TVU mentions; none found. Absence of any STR wording leads to marking STR as not allowed with moderate confidence.

STR Hotel Pool
No
Low

Because short-term rentals are not indicated in the public remarks, there is no basis for a hotel rental pool; therefore this is false.

STR Mandatory Pool
No
Low

No evidence of a hotel rental program or any mandatory rental-pool participation in the remarks. Since STR is not indicated, mandatory pool participation is false.

Land Tenure: Fee Simple
Yes

No analysis available

Land Tenure: Leasehold
No

No analysis available

Lease Expiry Year
Low

Searched for phrases like 'lease expires 2050', 'land lease to 2065', and 'leasehold expiring in 2040' and found no specific lease expiry year or renewal information; therefore the lease expiry year is unknown.

Financing V A
Yes
High

Multiple listings explicitly reference VA approval and an assumable VA loan at 2.25%, providing strong evidence that the building is VA loan approved.

Insured Fully
No
Low

I searched all public remarks for insurance-related phrases indicating HOA provides full/walls-in building insurance and found none. Because there is no explicit statement in the remarks that the building is fully insured by the HOA, this field is marked false (absence of evidence) with moderate confidence.

Fire Sprinklers
Yes
High

Historical MLS data flagged fire sprinklers with high confidence and current public remarks explicitly reference a "fire sprinkler system" (quote: "...security cameras, fire sprinkler system and key fob/ intercom access"). While explicit remarking is limited (appears in one listing), the combination of strong historical confidence and the present explicit mention across agents supports including fire_sprinklers for the building.

Fire Life Safety Eval Pass
No
Low

I searched for phrases like 'fire life safety evaluation passed', 'FLSE passed', 'passed fire inspection', etc. While remarks note a 'fire sprinkler system', there is no explicit declaration that the building passed a fire/life safety evaluation, so we cannot mark this as passed based on the public remarks.

Flood Zone (Current)
X
High

Flood zone determined from official FEMA Digital Flood Insurance Rate Map (DFIRM) data using building coordinates, not from agent-reported listing data.

Flood Zone (June 2026)
X

No analysis available

View: Ocean
No

No analysis available

View: Mountain
Yes
High

Multiple agent remarks across the building explicitly state mountain views (approx. 7 listings in the combined remarks: e.g., "beautiful mountain views", "magical mountain view", "beautiful Koolau mountain views", "majestic Koolau views", "mountains in distance", "peek-a-boo mountain views"). CURRENT MLS also lists MOUNTA for 6 of 20 listings. The evidence is consistent across several listings and agents, indicating the building offers mountain views for at least some units.

View: Diamond Head
No

No analysis available

View: City
No

No analysis available

View: Coastline
No

No analysis available

View: Garden
Yes
High

Strong, building-wide evidence that units offer garden views: 14 of 20 current MLS view_descriptions list GARDEN and numerous agent remarks state phrases like "lanai overlooking a beautiful garden," "lush, professionally landscaped grounds," and "courtyard and garden views." Multiple different listing remarks corroborate the feature across the complex rather than a single isolated unit, indicating buyers searching for garden views should consider this building.

View: Golf Course
No

No analysis available

View: Marina
No

No analysis available

View: Sunrise
No

No analysis available

View: Sunset
No
High

No listings (0/20) mention 'sunset', 'western exposure', or similar; remarks repeatedly reference 'mountain views', 'lush garden', 'courtyard/garden views', and 'tree-top views' (e.g., 'lanai opening to peaceful, lush courtyard and garden views', 'beautiful Koolau mountain views'). Evidence is consistent across many listings/agents with no language suggesting sunset or evening/western-facing views, so the building does not offer sunset views based on available MLS remarks.

View: Cemetery
No

No analysis available

Fireworks View
No
Low

I searched remarks for phrases indicating fireworks visible from the building/units and found no such statements. Listings reference beach and park proximity but do not claim fireworks can be viewed from the property.

Pets Allowed
No

No analysis available

Resident Manager
Yes
High

Multiple listings explicitly state there is on-site/resident management (examples: "daytime Resident Manager on site and night time guard service", "on-site management", "has on site resident manager, and night shift security"). With historical high confidence and several independent remarks across listings (at least four distinct mentions), evidence is strong that the building has a resident manager.

Condotel
No

No analysis available

Coop
No

No analysis available

Confidence levels are based on MLS checkbox data and AI analysis of listing remarks. High = strong evidence, Medium = some evidence, Low = limited or conflicting evidence. Buyers should always verify critical details independently.
